[Curious Beggar Design] Clean and Bold-- Ranks

NOTE: This rank set originally posted here. Free for use, as long as credit is given.


So I had been reading this topic..
http://help.forumotion.com/t86480-requesting-ranks
...and I realized later on after originally reading it that some ranks might actually be cool for my website too! So I decided to make some, but the topic got locked before I could post them. So here they are!

They are very similar to the ones the other person had posted, but a different, more bright colour. They also have more gloss and shine, plus (I think) less blank emptiness. Since my forum is very dark (reason why mine are bright), I added a rounded white outline. I don't have the rounding stuff in Photoshop down pat, so I just erased corners... I fail.








This was my first go at forum elements designing. I graphically design, but I never do this kind of stuff... more like ads and art. I've also only learnt how to use Photoshop by teaching myself, and have only been using it since early October.

Thank you, and I hope you like them!


EDIT:
They look like absolute crap on this background. Here are some more, showing how it looks with a darker background in mind:




In case you haven't seen, it actually looks pretty good on a light-ish background, seen here, if you didn't look the first time. It depends on what your taste is. :D

They look look really nice keep it up.

Thanks. :D

Very nice. Designed for the lighter bg, but very nice.

Thanks. :D They were a first attempt, so nothing special. It was kind of fun. I may do more similar things some other time.

you should they look good!

I made more, in both gold and blue colours. :P I must admit though that these were for my own forum, and all three sets happen to use the three main colours of the website.

Post and image i would like to see, it also means no-one can steal them.<br>
